Rating and Reviews

MFC-J6957DW is rated 4.0 out of 5 by 8.
Rated 1 out of 5 by from HOPING BETTER AS OTHERS MFC POOR QUALITY PRODUCT Upgraded to this as last 3 BROTHER MFC J6940DW Printers HAVE BEEN POOR QUALITY Have bought 3 of these printers and longest they have lasted is between 11 to 15 months so longevity of product is not up to standard
Date published: 2023-10-26
Rated 2 out of 5 by from Disappointed My previous experience with Brother was excellent but this machine does not photocopy anywhere near as well. It works, just a distinct Faint representation of the original, Brother help line was after a long wait no help. But It maybe I got a dud.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from MFC J6957DW an excellent value for money printer The MFC J6957DW is proving to be a hassle-free printer capable of printing A5, A4 and A3 with three separate trays, one for each paper size. Installation was made easy with easy-to-follow instructions on the printer itself.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A Pleasure To Date I recently purchased this MFC and have had no problems to date. I spent a solid fortnight researching differing brands, models and their features, and I landed here. Setup was super easy and you need zero ICT skills, so perfect for a small business or a busy home or a not-for-profit. I am still exploring all the tools that can be used but the use with various cloud or communications services is a breeze. In 6 months I will come back and update it further.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Super Gerät Ich habe in letzten Monat den Drucker gekauft und habe es nicht beraut. Die viele Extras so wie Beidseitiges Scannen oder Kopieren, spart viel man die Arbeit. Die Reichweite von Patronen sind schon Extrem, ich drucke heute noch mit der Starter Patrone (ca.2000 Seiten). Die Bedienung ist auch sehr einfach am Gerät, auch die Hilfe Stellung im Handbuch für die Spitzele Einstellung sind auch gut beschrieben. Dazu habe mir noch passende Unterschrank besorgt, da kann man den Drucker hin und her Schieben ohne den Boden zu zerkratzen und bietet auch Stauraum wo man den ganzen Zubehör verstauen kann.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Alle benötigten Funktionen sind vorhanden. Kauf vor ca. 5 Monaten und erwarte eine längere Benutzungsdauer als seine beiden Vorgängermodelle
